Even on a random Tuesday in September, the crowds descend on Montmartre. Well, it was a gorgeous day. But we discovered this little park (named for a highly decorated WWII resistance fighter) not far off the beaten path. It has an even better view of Sacré Coeur and aside from us there were only young locals there—who have managed to leave their mark behind this little waterfall.

ReplyDeleteWho would be Marcel Bleustein-Blanchet?
ReplyDeleteI like the way Sacré Coeur is framed by the foliage, the whiteness of the clouds on the left and the glint of sun up there. Only on looking closer did I realize what you meant by “little waterfall.” The skankiness of the graffiti made me wonder what the young locals do when they bring inebriative beverages to the park late at night and what a little thermochromatic coating could do to spruce up the aesthetics.
It's very tiring to climb up there, lol !

It must be great to be able to wonder around and see the area around from different angles. You don't often have time on a tour.
